Say goodbye to: fine lines, wrinkles, migraines, and even sweat
Smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with Botox.
What is it? Years of frowning, concentrating, squinting and more can really affect the appearance of wrinkles, especially those around your eyes (crow’s feet) and forehead (frown lines).
Our injectables target the underlying muscle activity that causes moderate to severe crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines in adults. The result of injections is a reduction of activity of those muscles, thereby temporarily reducing the appearance of those unwanted wrinkles or preventing a wrinkle from even happening.
Over time, the muscles around your eyes and above and between the eyebrows repeatedly contract and tighten, causing wrinkles. But with just a quick treatment, these neuromodulators block the signal from the nerve to the muscles, ultimately resulting in a reduction of muscle activity and temporarily preventing contraction of the muscles that cause the wrinkles.
Pre Treatment:
- If possible, avoid medications that thin your blood such as NSAID’s, aspirin, fish oil, vitamin E 48 hours prior to treatment if possible. This will help minimize the risk of bruising.
- Avoid alcohol 24 hours prior to treatment.
- If planning to workout the day of your treatment, do so prior to your appointment.
Post Treatment:
- Avoid rubbing or touching the treatment area for 4-6 hours after your treatment.
- Avoid drinking alcohol or strenuous exercise for 24 hours after your treatment.
- Mild bruising and headaches are a common side effect but typically resolve quickly.
- Results can take 7-10 days to take effect. Most patients return for their next treatment in 3-4 months, but it varies by patient.
- Scheduling a 2-week follow-up appointment is recommended to see if additional units are needed to achieve your desired results. There will be an additional charge if more units are needed.
Contraindications:
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- History of neurological disorders
- History of keloid scarring
